Looking to purchase a watch for around 8k for myself. Currently looking at these 4 primarily but can’t decide. I am open to suggestion for other watches around 8k or below. Please let me know if any of these watches should be avoided for a specific reason. I am not really looking g to resell the watch later on so price retention or premium isn’t a concern for me. Thank you.

There is a lot of variety here, and without knowing more about you, it's hard to give you a rec.

I don't like the way the santos looks on my wrist, but my buddy wears one every day and it looks awesome. It's a really cool and unique look, but you have to know whether you like it for yourself.

In this regard, the omega is probably the safest and most practical. In my opinion, it is also the most boring. However, it would probably be my second choice after the breitling. Breitling has more flair than the omega but is still practical every day.

I love the Monaco. I think it is the coolest of all the watches pictured here. I love the history of the watch, the unique design and the tie to Breaking Bad. I've never tried one on, but I think it would look hilariously dumb on me. I have 6.75' wrist.
